One of the easiest ways to install Sugar is to use sugar-jhbuild.
Sugar-jhbuild will automatically download the latest of sugar's dependencies as well as sugar itself directly from their source repositories, rather than relying on source packages that may have become stale. Below are generic instructions on how to use sugar-jhbuild to get up and running with Sugar.
Checkout sugar-jhbuild
git-clone git://dev.laptop.org/sugar-jhbuild
Build sugar and its dependencies
cd sugar-jhbuild
Start the build.
./sugar-jhbuild build
If you have problems when building
1) get a clean sugar-jhbuild
2) cd sugar-jhbuild
3) ./sugar-jhbuild build meta-sugar-base
4) ./sugar-jhbuild build
Run Sugar
./sugar-jhbuild run
Customize
To customize the build create a configuration file, named .olpc.jhbuildrc, in your home directory.
Write access to the repositories
If you have write access to the repositories you can add:
repos['gnome.org'] = ':ext:marco@cvs.gnome.org:/cvs/gnome' repos['mozilla.org'] = ':ext:marco%gnome.org@cvs.mozilla.org:/cvsroot' repos['git.laptop.org'] = 'git+ssh://dev.laptop.org/git/artwork'
Notes
sugar-jhbuild is still in early development. In particular, dependencies detection will be improved. It needs a lot of testing, so give it a try and report issues!
